Several other assailants were clustered behind the two who had forced
open the door. One of them was a female holding a leash that barely
restrained a large, snarling dog. One of the intruders pointed as
assault rifle at David’s head and threatened to shoot him. Another
invader, a female, bellowed, “Put your hands up! This dog will bite
you!”

David was seized and shackled. Connie and Aaron were also dragged
from their home. Neighbors who were drawn by the commotion poked their
heads out and were ordered to go back into their rooms....

First, notice that the "City" is upholding and condoning the conduct by LE (law enforcement). Gotta get to the root, the City, whomever that might be.

Next, as this kind of thing starts happening more and more, EVERYBODY is going to start setting up sentries that cannot easily be thwarted by LE - alarm systems / video surveillance / live sentries. As it is now, we have become so accustomed to a reasonable peaceful life, that we don't expect something like this to happen.

As this happens more and more, average people are going to be uniting in special "block watches" against Government terrorists like SWAT. It's going to become block-watch-military against City military.

Time to recognize that we need to investigate the exact limitations that any City has placed on their LE. And if we don't like it, use whatever means available to unite and get them to change policy.

There can't be enough enough payment to folks like the Johnsons to appease Government terrorism that they had to go through. Consider, if they had a pet doberman, it would have been murdered by LE.

There exists a law, not written down anywhere but inborn in our hearts; a law which comes to us not by training or custom or reading but by derivation and absorption and adoption from nature itself; a law which has come to us not from theory but from practice, not by instruction but by natural intuition. I refer to the law which lays it down that, if our lives are endangered by plots or violence or armed robbers or enemies, any and every method of protecting ourselves is morally right. Marcus Tullius Cicero
